You need to find out what is writing to /etc. Normally /etc should be fairly static. You can use lsof to track down the process, or use du to see which subdirectory has the 50GB of extra content.
using the du command i found that there is a file /etc/scalpel-output/audit.txt ,which is taking about 45 GB of space
i just deleted that file because i dont need that file...that file was created when i tried to recover some deleted file
using scalpel command..i dont need that file any more...problem is solved.
